The Masterpiece of Maturity: Revisitng Kathleen Edwards' Asking for Flowers (2008) Kathleen Edwards Asking For Flowers-2008--FLAC-

The album moves away from the more aggressive, uptempo starts of her previous records, opening instead with the downtempo, piano-driven "Buffalo". Themes and Tracklist uptempo starts of her previous records
